Ponderings likely not worth reading… What is traveling without inane stories of airport mishaps? What is an appropriate way to answer the question when someone invariably asks, “how was your flight?” — do you want a flight to be anything but uneventful?
It was not until I was on the plane leaving a gorgeous sunny [...]

Adios to NIPSA Scarlet letter From Flickr (but wither simplicity?)

It’s been almost a year since I had a bone to pick with flickr regarding their less visibly known process of stamping accounts consisting of their definition of screenshots as NIPSA (Not In Public Service Area) (the whole story is serialized.)
The issue for me was I had set up a pro account to house just [...]

How Long is a “Moment?”

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this March 24th, 2007 7:33 pm

This “moment” on twitter has lasted at least a week:

The ‘moment’ might be, “How long until out über cool technology is bought by Google/Rupert/Yahoo/Microsoft/….”?

Will 2007 be the year noted for the explosion of use for web video? Was it 2006? We just completed a 2 day conference on this at NMC, and I have this dreadful pile of great content I feel like I should get into and start discovering on my own. As soon as I can [...]

Where the Twitters Are

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this March 22nd, 2007 1:42 pm

Okay, so you are either hepped on twitter or think it is the dumbest thing since the Clapper. I’d use it more if it wasn’t so popular and bogged down lately.

I’d Like to Buy a “U” (charging for free software)

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this March 22nd, 2007 7:55 am

Just for the one letter mistake of typing a URL, access to free software can land you on a site that charges for access to the same. I want to give a big thanks to Carolyn who emailed me this morning, about a bad link I had on a site more than a year old.
